Notes
Immersive Van Gogh is magnificent.  Gogh see it. Accept no substitutes. 
The exhibition is in an old Ford factory, where they built Model A and Model T automobiles. Later, it was used for munition manufacture during the war. They repaved part of the factory floor with wooden bricks to prevent sparking if munitions fell on the war.
They are still working on the new ramp into Concord Mills. It seems to be taking forever.
Construction through Kannapolis is done, but there is bridge work happening between China Grove and Salisbury.
